Is Sir Alex on target in ripping Premier League?

The quotes came in the wake of Manchester United’s Champions League exit on Wednesday. Manchester United boss Ferguson is unhappy that Saturday’s Manchester derby match was not delayed a day by the league to give his squad an extra day’s rest:

“Leagues in other countries would help their clubs no end so they can prepare properly for European nights, so there is a problem there. We’ve not had much help from the Premier League.”

“Like I said, the television was happy to move the game to Sunday but the Premier League said the integrity of the competition had to be paramount. You can work out what integrity means, but I think it was an unfair decision.”

Your call: Is this a case of sour grapes or does Ferguson have a point?
